Getting to Know Snapseed

Picture
I will take you through the editing process of a single image shot with a smartphone, using the most important settings. I won’t cover all options available in Snapseed. That would require more time and involvement. Instead, these Snapseed image editing tips and tricks are meant to get you started with the basics, upon which you can improve as you learn more about editing and photography.
1. Presets and filters
4. Crop, rotate & perspective
2. Exposure
5. Brush tool
3. White balance
6. Healing

Consider Snapseed's Pre-sets & Filters

After importing an image into Snapseed, you will see a tab at the lower-left corner that says LOOKS. Tap on it and look through Snapseed’s filters.

In addition, you can go to the TOOLS tab and find the HDR Scape, Glamour Glow, Drama, Vintage, Grainy Film, Grunge, Retrolux, Noir, Portrait, Lens Blur, and other special effects.
​
These automated edits may be all you require, or it could be a good starting point you can further fine-tune. As for me, I will keep the original image and edit to my liking.

Fixing Exposure

The first step to take is to fix exposure to your liking. Your phone isn’t always smart enough to correctly measure lighting. Even if it does, you might want an image to be darker or brighter for creative reasons. Snapseed has a way to fix this problem.

​Tap on the
TOOLS tab and select Tune Image.
